“Repository-level storage” means each repository can target a different connection; on Developer and Team, connections are organization-wide.

Overage

Managed storage and egress above the included amount are metered per GB. Nothing is cut off — you’re billed for what you use.

Plan	Storage / GB-month	Egress / GB
Free	not available (hard limit)	not available
Developer	$0.10	$0.05
Team	$0.10	$0.05
Business	$0.09	$0.04

Overage is computed at micro-cent precision, so small amounts are billed exactly rather than rounded up to a cent.

Hitting a limit

Quotas are enforced before work starts, so a batch that would overflow is refused rather than half-written:

{
  "error": {
    "code": "quota_exceeded",
    "message": "storage limit reached for the Developer plan (100 GiB); upgrade to add more",
    "request_id": "8c1f…",
    "details": { "reason": "storage_quota", "limit": 107374182400, "current": 106300000000 }
  }
}

`details.reason`	Triggered by
`max_repositories`	Creating a repository
`max_members`	Inviting a member
`max_tokens`	Creating a token
`max_object_size`	Authorizing an object larger than the plan allows
`storage_quota`	Authorizing a batch that would exceed the storage limit
`max_storage_connections`	Creating a storage connection

Switch on reason to show the right message. See Errors.

Warnings before the wall

storage.quota.warning fires as you approach the limit.
storage.quota.exceeded fires when you pass it, and marks the organization PAST_DUE.

Both raise an in-app notification, send an email, and fan out to your webhooks. Subscribe to them — a quota surprise is entirely avoidable.

Watching your usage

export API=https://cavsnode.com/api/v1
export H="Authorization: Bearer $CAVS_TOKEN"

curl -sS "$API/organizations/acme-ai/usage"    -H "$H"   # totals vs limits
curl -sS "$API/organizations/acme-ai/dashboard" -H "$H"  # + a forecast
curl -sS "$API/organizations/acme-ai/billing"  -H "$H"   # plan + invoice preview

cav storage

The dashboard’s forecast projects storage and egress to the end of the period from the current trend, next to the plan’s included amounts. See Usage & metering.

Choosing

If you…	Pick
Are evaluating CAVS	Free — one repository, 10 GiB, no card
Work alone or in a pair, under ~100 GiB	Developer
Need roles, audit, several collaborators, or BYOS	Team
Need SSO, an SLA, per-repository storage or > 10 TiB	Business

Add-ons and pricing changes

Plans, prices, limits and feature flags are read per request from the plan catalogue, so changes take effect without a redeploy. GET /api/v1/plans is always authoritative — prefer it over any hard-coded table, including this one.
